Reference: A-091-002

Description: Shows a ship sailing for New Zealand, watched by a race-goer or bookie, pulling his empty pockets out of his trousers. The ship contains an Australian bookie of dubious character, smoking a cigar and waving cheerfully to the watcher. Also on the ship are a racehorse and many bags of money. Refers to a period when legislation was introduced in 1907 in New Zealand, by Sir Joseph Ward, allowing licensed bookmakers to operate on race-courses. This attracted many Australian book-makers, some of doubtful honesty. The legislation was repealed in 1910. Probably drawn for the Evening News, Sydney; or possibly for The bulletin, Sydney While the drawing may refer to G C Stead's successful racing trip to Australia, the figure shown in the ship does not resemble Stead, who was white-haired and bearded. Stead died in 1908 Inscriptions: Recto - bottom centre - 'After Hy Julius' (i.e. Henry Julius, a reference to the inventor of the electric totalisator) Quantity: 1 drawing(s). Physical Description: Ink drawing, 245 x 228 mm Provenance: Collection of Alexander Turnbull? Turnbull purchased a large number of etchings and drawings from Lionel Lindsay. This may be the drawing referred to in 'Catalogue of pictures and art objects in the Alexander Turnbull Library' [1942 or later], p. 8, as 'Lindsay, Lionel. Caricature of Stead's successful racing trip to Australia'

Description: Plan in watercolour of Accommodation section no. 1 at Waimea, with its surrounding land, centre top. On the right, a pencil drawing of a man on horseback, with the horse trotting. Below that, a cow's head (with a missing section of paper) and an elderly man with a wide-brimmed hat, standing, holding a cigar in one hand and a walking stick in the other. Along the bottom of the drawing is a jockey racing a horse with a background of a field and buildings, possibly race-course buildings, with trees and hills beyond. Identification with Duppa's station at Waimea is likely when this plan and the related drawing at Plans-80-0679 are compared with Duppa's pencil and watercolour drawing 'Accommodation section no. 1, Wai Mea, Nelson' (A-162-010) Quantity: 1 drawing(s).
